KCLI - Kansas City Life Announces Third Quarter 2025 Results

PR Newswire

KANSAS CITY, Oct. 31, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Kansas City Life Insurance Company recorded net income of $3.2 million or $0.33 per share in the third quarter of 2025, up from net income of $1.3 million or $0.14 per share in the third quarter of 2024.  The improvement in net income in the third quarter of 2025 reflected higher investment revenues and lower policyholder benefits, which was largely driven by a decline in death benefits, net of reinsurance.  These improvements were partially offset by a decrease in insurance revenues. 

We recorded a net loss of $23.0 million or $2.38 per share in the first nine months of 2025 compared to net income of $7.6 million or $0.79 per share in the first nine months of 2024.  The primary factor in the decrease in net income in the first nine months of 2025 was the establishment of a legal settlement accrual of $35.5 million, net of tax, in the second quarter related to a potential settlement of class action lawsuits.  Excluding this legal settlement accrual, net income would have been $12.5 million or $1.29 per share in the first nine months of 2025.  After excluding the legal settlement accrual, the increase over the first nine months of 2024 was primarily due to lower policyholder benefits.  Partially offsetting this was a decrease in insurance revenues.
